28:1  In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the

first [day] of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary

to see the sepulchre.


28:2  And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel

of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the

stone from the door, and sat upon it.


28:3  His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white

as snow:


28:4  And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as

dead [men].


28:5  And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not

ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.


28:6  He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the

place where the Lord lay.


28:7  And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen

from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee;

there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.


28:8  And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and

great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.


28:9  And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met

them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet,

and worshipped him.


28:10  Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my

brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.


28:11  Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came

into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things

that were done.


28:12  And when they were assembled with the elders, and had

taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,


28:13  Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole

him [away] while we slept.


28:14  And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade

him, and secure you.


28:15  So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and

this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.


28:16  Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a

mountain where Jesus had appointed them.


28:17  And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some

doubted.


28:18  And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is

given unto me in heaven and in earth.


28:19  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in

the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:


28:20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have

commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end

of the world. Amen.
